Hi Livio,

The length of the tail is amazing! How can she catch a fly with that? :) A good and impressive photo with a colorful BG.

Well Done & TFS.

Hi My Friend,
An excellent shot on the "Little Scissors"...Very well composed and framed shot. A good exposured has rendered beautiful colors and nice detail. A great and colorful OOF backround really shows the bird well.
Take care,

Bonjour Livio
Très belle capture de ce magnifique oiseau que j'ai jamais eu l'occasion de ne voir sur ce site. Tu as bien saisis tous les détails dans cette belle prise de vue, profondeur de champs et composition.
Merci et au revoir...JP,

Cool shot of this long tailed flycatcher.

Good sharpness and composition.

The grey plumage contrasts well with the background colours.

Interesting. I like the colors. It isn't as sharpa as i'd like but i think the subject makes the picture interesting. And i guess there's nothing much u can PP here because its tail is sooo long, to improve composition.
Interesting not. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Livio

What a beautiful and interestin bird!
Wow...their tail is soooo big! :) Amazing!
Very well seen and captured. I like the POV and the sharpness. Very nice light and colors, too.
Also great is the DOF, making the bird stand out from the beautiful blurry BG.
Great work!

Bravo and TFS

Hola Livio:
Agradable composiciòn. Bellos colores y definiciòn. En Argentina la llamamos "tijereta" y es una de las aves por mi preferida. Se alimente de insectos al vuelo y no es muy comùn verla. Habita en el campo.
Felicitaciones y Saludos.

Chapeau mi querido amigo... un ave de ensueño muy bien retratada.
Excelente encuadre incluyendo la totalidad de la cola, con buenos colores, agudeza y DOF muy apropiado, generando un fondo suave y difuso.
Viendo en More Photo Info, informas distancia focal de 400mm... es el máximo de la lente, pero hay que sumarle el coeficiente de conversión de la cámara? son en total 640mm?
Un gran saludo de tu amigo argentino.

Chapeau my dear friend... a dream bird very well depicted.
Excellent framing including the entirety of the tail, with good colors, sharpness and very appropriate DOF, generating a soft and diffuse bottom.
Seeing in Photo Info, you inform a focal length of 400mm... it is the maximum of the lens, but is it necessary to add the coefficient of conversion of the camera? are they in total 640mm?
Best greetings of your Argentinean friend.

Olá Lívio,
acabei de ver uma destas lá em Avaré (com o Reynaldo - nofer). Gostei da sua pela baixa profundidade de campo (apesar de poder ver a terrinha vermelha de Patos de Minas) e por você ter registrado ela de um ângulo ligeiramente superior ao que a ave se encontrava, o que é muito difícil.
Parabéns,
Wagner.
